A moment's insight is sometimes worth a life's experience.

I mentioned in a previous post I was in the Confirmatory Typing stage of testing for the National Marrow Donor Program. Last month, I was contacted by the NMDP and told I was a match for a patient with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in need of a bone marrow transplant. Three weeks ago I donated more samples and knew it could take up to eight weeks for this

I'm really sorry, Sherry, I could tell that doing this meant a lot to you. Very sad for the patient's family too, of course.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I'm very moved by your example and your willingness to do something like this for another person. You inspire me.

Sherry you are such a beautiful, beautiful person. I'm sorry that the beginning of your journey with this started out with such a sad step.

You did everything you could. Sometimes it's not enough, but that doesn't stop us from trying to save another.
